Iran submits 14-point response to U.S. proposal to end war
Iran has submitted a 14-point response to a U.S. proposal aimed at ending the ongoing conflict that began with U.S. and Israeli attacks on February 28, 2026. The response calls for resolving all issues within 30 days, rejecting the U.S.-proposed two-month ceasefire, and includes demands such as the lifting of sanctions and withdrawal of U.S. forces.
